Notes

"Among George and Judithís children was William Farrar who was
born in Chesterfield County, VA. The first son to be named in
his fatherís will, he was probably the oldest living son of
George Farrar, Sr. Alvahn Holmes states that "William Farrar was
a Sergeant in the French and Indian War...under Major William
Caldwell...for which he probably received a grant of land."
William moved with his parents to Mecklenburg County, Virginia
where he married on 24 July 1780 to Lucy Medley . Farrar family
tradition states Lucy to be his second wife. On 19 May 1781,
William sold his land and in 1784 purchased 500 acres in
Granville County, North Carolina. "He probably was influenced to
move there by his brother Field and his own sons William, Abel,
George and possibly John who had served in the Revolutionary
Army in NC." William Farrar Sr.ís will was probated in Granville
County, NC in August 1788."
